The 3rd Karring – Nyman Sunstar Guidor Award was bestowed during the 2019 IADR congress (International Association for Dental Research) in Vancouver on June 20th.
This year, the prize was awarded to Dr. Peter Harisson from the Trinity Dental College of Dublin, Ireland, for the project “L-PRF vs. L-PRF Block in periodontal regeneration of 2- and 3-walled intrabony defects”.
The aims of the project of Dr. Harisson are to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes following grafting with L-PRF versus L-PRF Block and to investigate factors affecting the in vitro degradation of membranes. Learn more about the project here.

Congratulations to Dr Harisson!
